Why I did it
ndppd by default reads /proc/net/ipv6_route ever 30 seconds. Since T1s advertise so many routes to ToRs, this file is extremely large, and reading it causes ndppd's CPU usage to spike every 30 seconds
How I did it
Increase the delay for reading this file to the maximum possible value (max integer value), which will result in CPU spikes every ~24 days instead of every 30 seconds
How to verify it
Start ndppd with the new config file, confirm that no CPU spikes are seen except at startup

* Install ndppd during image build, and copy config files to image
* Configure proxy settings based on config DB at container start
* Pipe ndppd output to logger inside container to log output in syslog
